Starting to worry this is neurological

I've posted a good few times about this now but I feel alone in this matter, I keep having episodes of dizzy spells and I don't mean spinning, more like swaying/on a boat sensation and my eyes have started to go a bit funny when it happens, it's almost like I'm about to faint. Blood pressure is fine and heart is also fine.
I'm also suffering from headaches on and off and my ears feel blocked however ear has been checked and looks normal - I'm booked in for an MRI on inner ear and audiology appointment with ENT.
Had an appointment with community ENT and all balance tests were normal.
Can someone tell me if they have experienced what I am experiencing, it's consistent and so debilitating, I get worried to leave the house because of the episodes, although I do....
I'm so scared, I keep thinking it's to do with my brain instead of my ears :/

There are so many things that could cause this, yes including something neurological but also things as simple as stress/ anxiety.

You really just need to keep discussing with your doctor and don't scare yourself by looking things up on Google.

Hey lovlies just opening this back up. Did you find out what was wrong..
I've been having this weird boat feeling with a horrible feeling of being pushed down especially from neck area for 9 weeks. Started from travel. I've had lots of travel pills, anxiety pills and even an ssri but side effects awful so stopped them. Weird thing I don't notice when outside at all, sitting or walking but when indoors on sofa or bed horrible feelings. Bloods all ok. Ent couldn't see anything in middle ear but said maybe inner so I have mri to check everything. So annoying

Can I ask how everyone is doing on this thread please @Anonymousxo ? I’ve been poorly for six weeks post virus and UTI. I have strange neuro symptoms - started with head pressure, dizziness, random tingling and sinus pain - now is full blown fatigue, losing weight, stomach issues, blurry eye. Rapid heart rate, tremors. I could go on. Feeling like I’m falling apart/ losing my mind after going from a perfectly healthy mum of 2 kids to lying on the sofa all day signed off work 😢 desperately looking for hope or answers
